The match was poised evenly and Knight Riders needed run a ball. Mohammad Hafeez and David Hussey hit few shots to bring the climbing run rate down but Ohja came into attack and got the wicket of Hafeez. Knight Riders needed 22 runs in 20 balls and suddenly the lights went off to add more tension to the already prevailing match tension.
